Read it! Love it?Add it to your profile

Read it! Love it? Add it to your Profile is a special service that alerts libraries to up-and coming, well-known and and award-winning authors who may not be on their profiled orders list. James Bennett works with prominent publishers like Pan Macmillan Australia to highlight authors that should be automatically profiled.

Initially piloted in the first half of 2011, the program has been extended to include a monthly e-newsletter on highlighted authors. We're talking to publishers about on publication samples, advance reading copies and POS material like posters and shelf-talkers designed specifically for libraries.

You can keep up-to-date on the featured authors on our monthly Read it Love it e-newsletter service by clicking here. Alternatively you can update your subscription to include Read it Love it next time you receive an e-newsletter from us. Simply follow the Update Your Subscription buttons in the footer and ensure you are subscribed to the promotional services that best suit you. You can also email Marketing here if you'd like us to manually update your e-newsletter subscription.
